Ensuring transparency and integrity in public decision making and electoral processes
in the State of Mexico
This paper provides recommendations to foster integrity and transparency in decision
making in the State of Mexico, by regulating access and promoting stakeholder engagement;
and to enhance transparency and integrity in the funding of political parties and
election campaigns. It addresses current challenges related to political finance such
as cash contributions and clientelism, as well as the need to ensure adequate audit
capacities and effective sanctions that advance accountability. Likewise, it analyses
the state of play in terms of interactions between stakeholders, on the one hand,
and public officials and legislators, on the other, providing recommendations to prevent
policy capture, preserve integrity, and strengthen transparency.
